i^ '-^ INTRODUCTION. 



ro 



The liigli school is the pupil's college. Upon its character, its 
spirit, and its work depend not only the knowledge and skill, hut 
also the ideals and mental attitude of a very large majority of the 
men and women who will rise to positions of influence in industrial, 
social, and civic life. The preparation and later success of those who 
enter schools of higher learning also depend in large measure on the 
high schools, but the character of the high schools, including both 
spirit and work, is determined very largely by their principals. The 
principalship of the high school may well be conceded to be the most 
important and difficult position in the entire school system, requiring 
of those who fill it well the highest type of native ability, broad and 
comprehensive education, much professional knowledge, and great 
skill in teaching, in organization, in management, and in leadership. 
Only men and women of such qualifications should be employed in 
this position. To employ as principals of these schools, organized 
for boys and girls during the golden period of youth, in the years of 
early and middle adolescence, any other than men and women of 
the best fibility is to court failure where failure spells disaster more 
clearly than anywhere else in the school system. 

It is, therefore, interesting to know just what are the wages paid 
principals in the high schools of the United States, to what extent 
these wages have been increased in the last five or six years, which 
have been marked by large increases in wages paid in most occupa- 
tions and in the cost of living. 

This bulletin, the result of a recent special inquiry and study 
made by the Bureau of Education, gives this information for the 
country as a whole and for each of the several States. 

It is interesting to note that the average annual salary for high- 
school principals for the school year 1919-20 was only $1,504.42— 
a little more than the average annual wages of good stenographers, 
about as much as Pullman porters receive in wages and tips (the 
figures are based on personal investigation), and about $300 less 
than the annual wages paid rural mail carriers. 

It is also interesting to note that within the five jears from 1914-1.5 
to 1919-20, during which the cost of living increased about 108 per 
cent, and wages paid in most occupations increased as much, the 
average pay of high-school principals only increased 18.8 per cent. 
Measured by purchasing power, the wages of high-school principals 
in 1919-20 was only 57 per cent of what it was five years before. 

At the wages paid, can we reasonably expect to attract and hold 
in the principalships of the high schools such men and women as 
are necessary for the best results ?

SALARIES OF PRINCIPALS OF HIGH SCHOOLS. 



Certain facts of interest relating to salaries of principals of liigh 
schools are now available as the result of a study just completed by 
the Bureau of Education. 

The study is based on returns from 10,440 high schools located in 
the 48 States and the District of Columbia. According to reports 
from the State departments of public instruction, there were 16,258 
public high schools in 1917-18, the latest year for which full reports 
have been received. It appears, therefore, that the following figures 
on salaries cover approximately 60 per cent of the high schools of 
the country. 

METHOD OF INVESTIGATION. 

Each principal was requested to report the amount of salary 
received for the school year 1919-20, also the salary paid to the occu- 
pant of the same position in 1914-15. Of the 10,440 principals 
reporting for 1919-20, only 7,981 reported the salaries paid in 1914-15. 

Average annual salaries were computed for each State by dividing 
the total amount of salaries received by the number of principals 
reporting, and for groups of States by dividing the aggregate amount 
of salaries by the aggregate number of principals. 

Next, a distribution of salaries was secured for each State, arranged 
in groups of $100 under $1,000 and in groups of $250 above that sum. 

The actual average was computed for each group of salaries. 
Table 1 shows the distribution of salaries paid in California and Ken- 
tucky, the two States reporting the highest and lowest average 
annual salaries, respectively. 

From this table it Avill be observed that in 1914-15, in California, 
155 of the salaries reported, or almost three-fourths of the total, were 
included between $1,500 and $2,499; while in 1919-20 nearly the 
same proportion, or 160 salaries, was included between $2,000 and 
$3,249. In 1914-15, in Kentucky, 133 of the salaries reported, or 
76.4 per cent, were included between $600 and $1,249; wliile in 
1919-20, 170 salaries, or 75.5 per cent, were included between $900 
and $1,999. 

The average annaal salary reported in California increased in five 
years from $2,137.51 to $2,620. 09, or 22.6 per cent; in Kentucky 
the increase was from $948.03 to $1,189.71, or 25.5 per cent.

I Averago. 



IlANRlXCr OF THE STATES. 

Ill Tabic 2 is present od a summary showing tlio ranking of tlio 48 
States according to average annual salaries paid to high-school prin- 
cipals. In column 1 of the table the number of high schools in 
1917-18 is given for comparison with the number 01 piincipals report- 
ing salaries for 1919-20. 

The average annual salary re]:)Orted by the State at the top of the 
list is more than two and one-fifth times that reported by the State 
at the bottom. The average annual salary reported by the 12 States 
in the highest quarter is 60.2 per cent greater than the average 
salary reported by the 12 States in the lowest quarter. The median 
average annual salary falls in the group S'1,387.20. 

In only seven States^ reporting GS4 schools, or 6.5 per cent of the 
total, was the average annual salary of the principal reported for 
1919-20 in excess of ^1,900.

1 The median average annual salary falls in the group $1,387.20. 

Note. — The District of Columbia is omitted from this tabulation. There are seven 
high schools in the District; the salary of the principal is $2,740 in six cases, and $3,000 
in one; average, $2,777.14, 



8 SAL^iEIES OF PrJXCIPALS OF HIGH SCHOOKS. 

Tabic 3 presents a summary of tlic salaries reported, by divisions of 
States, sbowing averages for 1914-15 and 1019-20, and per cent of 
increase. 

Tlie per cent of increase for the 5-year period ranges from 4.7 per 
cent, for the North Atlantic States, to 34.8 per cent, for the South 
Atlantic States. The average for the country is 18. S per cent. 
The North Atlantic Division includes 6 of the 12 States in the highest 
quarter of Table 2, while the South Atlantic Division includes 4 of 
the 12 States in the lowest quarter of Table 2. 

In these five years the cost of living increased 108 per cent, and 
wages paid in most occupations increased about as much. On this 
basis of purchasing power, the average wage paid principals of high 
schools in 1919-20 was only 57 per cent of the average wage for 
1914-15.
